«ScalaMeta and the Future of Scala», Alexander Nemish

Martin Odersky, creator of Scala, and his team work on a new language called Dotty, which aims to become the next Scala6 major version. They claim to deprecate Scala macro system on behalf of Scala Meta – a clean-room implementation of a metaprogramming toolkit for Scala, designed to be simple, robust and portable. We will take a look at upcoming language changes, Scala Meta, and Scala Native – an optimizing ahead-of-time compiler and lightweight managed runtime.
